CONTEXT-DRIVEN FRAMEWORK TO MIGRATE THE APPLICATIONS AND ITS DEPENDENCIES BY ANALYZING THE RELATIONSHIPS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17726165 Titled 'CONTEXT-DRIVEN FRAMEWORK TO MIGRATE THE APPLICATIONS AND ITS DEPENDENCIES BY ANALYZING THE RELATIONSHIPS'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes methods, systems, and computer readable mediums for creating and executing migration workflows to transfer or move data from one device or set of devices to another. The migration process involves obtaining information about the relationships between applications that will be migrated and classifying them based on these relationships. A relationship matrix is then generated to prioritize the migration of each application, and the applications are migrated accordingly.


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments described herein relate to methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable mediums storing instructions for creating and executing migration workflows to replicate or migrate data (collectively referred to herein as ‘migration’) from one device or set of devices to another device or set of devices (e.g., from one computing environment to another). The method of migration involves obtaining relationship information with regards to the applications that will be migrated from one device to another device or set of devices, and classifying the applications based on their relationships such as HAS-A and IS-A. Based on these classifications, one or more embodiments of the invention generate a relationship matrix in order to assign priority to the migration of each individual application. The applications are then migrated based on the matrix and assigned priorities.
